1. ⇒  (MHT CET 2023 13th May Morning Shift )

On increasing the reverse bias to a large value in a P-N junction diode, current

A. increase slowly.

B. remains fixed.

C. suddenly increases.

D. decreases slowly.

Correct Option is (C)

When the reverse voltage increases beyond the breakdown voltage, the current suddenly increases.

5. ⇒  (MHT CET 2023 10th May Evening Shift )

For the diagram shown, the resistances between points A and B when ideal diode D is forward biased is ' R 1 ' and that when reverse biased is ' R 2 '. The ratio R 1 : R 2 is

MHT CET 2023 10th May Evening Shift Physics - Semiconductor Devices and Logic Gates Question 16 English

A. 2 : 1

B. 1 : 1

C. 1 : 2

D. 1 : 4

Correct Option is (C)

When the diode is forward biased, current will flow through both the arms.

The effective resistance is

R 1 = 40 × 40 80 = 1600 80 = 20 Ω

When the diode is reverse biased, current will flow through the bottom arm only

The effective resistance R 2 is 40 Ω .

R 1 R 2 = 20 40 = 1 2
